Workflow - Starting Rule checking AD Groups

Workflow Version 9

Hi everyone!

Yesterday I noticed that one condition in a starting rule was taking about 25 seconds to complete. (I was monitoring the Subscriber)

The condition is: "User's Groups include LF_Group_Name".

The thing is, when a user belongs to that group, the subscriber takes some milliseconds to evaluate the condition and then moves to the next one. The big issue is when the user does not belong to that group. Then it will search in AD groups and will take about 25 seconds to complete.

Is this the expected behavior of that condition? As when I add such a condition, I can only change the group to one of the LF groups defined in LF Admin Console.

Thank you!

To close off this thread, this issue was investigated through a support case. The condition evaluation is not the problem, the Laserfiche Server needs extra time to resolve the AD group membership when the user is a member of large (75+) number of groups and some of those groups are nested into other groups.

What version of the Laserfiche Server are you using? Is this a Rio setup with Laserfiche Directory Server?

Does it happen to you as well? (regardless of the time it takes)

I noticed that for a repository user it only compares his LF group and, to be honest, I was expecting the same behavior for Windows Accounts.

Yes, 25 seconds.

Laserfiche version is 9.2.1. I am not sure about Laserfiche Directory Server. We do not use anything web based, so my first guess would be no, but I might be wrong.
